Some, but I just kept getting errors.

Yes, this is a SOAP response from a web service. How do I convert that into something usable? If I have to write a parsing routine, then what is the point of the SOAP/XML? I could just as easily parse a flat file. Easier maybe. If there is a standard involved here, then shouldn't there be a standard way of reading the XML?
